Component-context actions

The following actions are available when using the designated components, typically within a sub-element. These actions represent functionality that can only occur in a specific component's context—working directly row or field data.

These actions are typically not abstractable in the same way as component actions available through Run component action. Because of this, many only appear when you select a relevant component in the canvas. In the action list dropdown, they appear under a category heading that indicates the actual component type (like Table actions ).

    • Read: Sets the row's editing mode to read, disabling end user input.

Wizard actions

Note:  Some actions are also available by using Run component action .

  • Navigate to step: Navigates users to a specific step in the Wizard component. Most useful if a list of actions requires a user be taken to a specific step, for example if a branch formula determines a user should proceed to an alternate area of the Wizard.

    • Step ID: The ID of the step to navigate the end user to. Compatible with merge syntax.

  • Navigate to previous step: Navigates users to the previous step in the Wizard component. This works for general purpose Previous button actions without requiring a specific step ID, as with the Navigate to Step action.

  • Navigate to next step: Navigates users to the next step in the Wizard component. This works for general purpose Next button actions without requiring a specific step ID, as with the Navigate to Step action.

  • Change layout: Manages the layout of the selected Wizard, which is initially set in the component's General properties. When a Wizard's layout is changed, the user remains on their current step, but the position of the step's content, as well as any enabled step/progress indicators, will shift.

    • Layout: Determines the layout to switch the selected Wizard to.

      • Toggle: Switches the Wizard to the opposite layout of what it's currently set to. For example, Horizontal > Vertical or vice versa.

      • Vertical: Switches the Wizard to the vertical layout. If the Wizard is already in a vertical layout, there is no effect.

      • Horizontal: Switches the Wizard to the horizontal layout. If the Wizard is already in a horizontal layout, there is no effect.
